Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • Code block support is not fully rolled out yet but likely will be in the middle of the event. Try to share solutions as both code blocks and using something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ , pastebin, or github (code blocks to future proof it for when 0.19 comes out and since code blocks currently function in some apps and some instances as well if they are running a 0.19 beta)

Haskell

Managed to do part1 in one line using ByteString operations:

import Control.Monad
import qualified Data.ByteString.Char8 as BS

part1 :: IO Int
part1 =
  sum
    . ( BS.transpose . BS.split '\n'
          >=> fmap succ
          . BS.elemIndices 'O' . BS.reverse . BS.intercalate "#"
          . fmap (BS.reverse . BS.sort) . BS.split '#'
      )
    <$> BS.readFile "inp"

Part 2

{-# LANGUAGE NumericUnderscores #-}

import qualified Data.ByteString.Char8 as BS
import qualified Data.Map as M
import Relude

type Problem = [ByteString]

-- We apply rotation so that north is to the right, this makes
-- all computations easier since we can just sort the rows.
parse :: ByteString -> Problem
parse = rotate . BS.split '\n'

count :: Problem -> [[Int]]
count = fmap (fmap succ . BS.elemIndices 'O')

rotate, move, rotMov, doCycle :: Problem -> Problem
rotate = fmap BS.reverse . BS.transpose
move = fmap (BS.intercalate "#" . fmap BS.sort . BS.split '#')
rotMov = rotate . move
doCycle = rotMov . rotMov . rotMov . rotMov

doNcycles :: Int -> Problem -> Problem
doNcycles n = foldl' (.) id (replicate n doCycle)

findCycle :: Problem -> (Int, Int)
findCycle = go 0 M.empty
  where
    go :: Int -> M.Map Problem Int -> Problem -> (Int, Int)
    go n m p =
      let p' = doCycle p
       in case M.lookup p' m of
            Just n' -> (n', n + 1)
            Nothing -> go (n + 1) (M.insert p' n m) p'

part1, part2 :: ByteString -> Int
part1 = sum . join . count . move . parse
part2 input =
  let n = 1_000_000_000
      p = parse input
      (s, r) = findCycle p
      numRots = s + ((n - s) `mod` (r - s - 1))
   in sum . join . count $ doNcycles numRots p
